Advantages: A nice mix of up-tempo tracks and slower ballads

Disadvantages: Some of the tracks seem to be just filler material

This was Atomic Kitten's second album and was released in 2002. It features the # 1 hitThe Tide Is High (Get The Feeling) and It's Ok.

***It's Ok!***
This is a fairly quick track that was the lead single. Although it is fairly up-tempo, it isn't one of the album's dancey tracks and is a bit more mellow than many of the other tracks on the album in this respect.

***Love Won't Wait***
This is disco-style song that is similar to Right Now (from their debut album).

***The Tide Is High (Get The Feeling)***
This is a cover of the Blondie track, and is a bit more up-tempo than the original. Because of this, it lacks something compared to Blondie's version and just turns into another of the up-tempo dancey tracks on the album.

***Feels So Good***
The album's title track was written by Kylie Minogue, and is an up-tempo dancey track that wouldn't sound out of place on one of Kylie's own albums. It is probably no coincidence that this was chosen as the title track as it is easily one of the best tracks on the album.

***Walking On The Water***
This is a mid-tempo track that is fairly lively. There are quite a few 'talky/whispery' bits, which I'm not fond of.

***The Moment You Leave Me***
This is a fairly mid-tempo track that becomes quite catchy in the chorus.

***The Last Goodbye***
This is another of the mid-tempo tracks. The verses are a bit slower than on Walking On The Water but the chorus is about the same tempo. It is probably the closest that this album comes to replicating Whole Again, although there are other tracks that are also vaguely similar to that.

***Love Doesn't Have To Hurt***
This is one of the mid-tempo ballads on the album and has soft acoustic backing. This makes a refreshing change to the up-tempo tracks that tend to dominate on the album but it is a bit dull.

***Softer The Touch***
This is another of the up-tempo dancey tracks.

***The Way That You Are***
This is another of the slower tracks on the album.

***Baby Don't Leave Me***
This is another of the up-tempo dancey tracks.

***So Hot***
Like Feels So Good, this dancey track is also in the Kylie vein. The chorus is catchy

***Maybe I'm Right***
This is another of the slower tracks on the album. The vocals sound pretty good here.

***No-One Loves You (Like I Love You)***
This is another of the ballads on the album and quite a bit slower than Love Doesn't Have To Hurt. The vocals here are pretty good and it shows that the girls don't need heavy production to sound good. I'm not keen on the repetitive hook of the chorus though.

***Overall Thoughts***
There are a fair few tracks on this album that aren't a million miles away from Whole Again, which really kickstarted their success (even though they had been around for a while before it was released). Having found success, this album seems to be sticking to that tried-and-tested formula, although there aren't that many tracks here that are quite as good as Whole Again. There is not as much 'attitude' as there was in their debut album, but there are more than a few good and catchy pop songs here. The girls had a hand in writing or co-writing some of the tracks on this album, including The Way That You Are (written by Natasha), So Hot and Baby Don't Leave Me (both of which were co-written by Jenny) and Maybe I'm Right (co-written by Liz).

Summary: Atomic Kitten at their best!
